OK. So if a #toot ends up in my feed that is longer than 500 characters but isn't automatically truncated, would that be a feature of that #instance and should I #block the entire #instance

Maybe I should report the toot.

Never seen such a long toot auto-showing the whole thing.

#AskFedi #AskFreddy

@lydiaconwell I think they automatically put a 'Read more' in there after a certain size?

My instance allows us to post 65k characters. :P

@trinsec Usually the read more is around 500 characters so the toot doesn't take up space. But this one showed the entire thing.

@lydiaconwell Seems to be a bug I think. Got a link to one?

@lydiaconwell Oh, yes. That's a long post behind a CW. I think it's a huge oversight that they don't apply the Read More to CWed long posts.
We have this problem too.

Just be glad it doesn't happen often, I suppose.

@trinsec Yet ... loads of people have been moaning about people for not using CWs!

Maybe this is a thing I should bother all the tech, developy people with.

Is #AskFedi the hashtag, or is there another one?

@lydiaconwell No clue. I don't generally ask questions to the Fediverse at large. ;)

Unless it's about phones.

I hate phones.
